Mathematical Expressions - Everyday Life
It is quite probable that you have
heard of the mass-energy equivalence equation derived by Albert Einstein.
Roughly translated the formula says
- Energy = mass times the speed of light (measured in celeritas)
squared.
Now, I don't expect you to start thinking like Einstein or to even try to
understand the equation above. I have used the equation only as a
common example of how mathematical equations can be expressed by using
letters from the represented words. So you could create an equation:
Which could be translated to read:
- Fish sticks at dinner equal an easy meal.
Or
Which would mean
- 4 people playing a board game is more fun (greater than) one person
playing a video game.

Fun With Numbers - Build
A Relationship Chain
This is a group challenge to find a special
relationship for at least one person in your group with a chain of numbers.
Starting with the number 1, find someone who can
relate their life with that number. Is there anyone who was born in
January, the first month? I can claim a relationship with the number 1
because I am the mother to only one child.
Next comes the number 2. My special relationship
with the number 2 is that I own two cats.
Who can own numbers, 3, 4, and 5? How high can
you build your chain?
